Anti-ageing gin anyone?

If you're the kind of person who believes that products can turn back the hands of time to make you look younger, you're probably getting a bit bored of slapping creams and lotions on your face.

Why bother, when you can get horrifically drunk instead?

That's not to say you should just get drunk and forget about your wrinkles (and possibly forget how to walk and control your bladder), but rather, someone's brought out an anti-ageing gin.

No. Really. It is called Anti-aGin, and is distilled with pure collagen. Again, we're not making this up. Even as we type, it feels like we're making it up.

Basically, this gin is filled with ingredients that are known to rejuvenate. So, alongside the booze to get you drunk, you also get chamomile, nettle, witch hazel, tea tree, and a load of other stuff that makes it taste like gin.

The people behind the gin reckon that the ingredients were chosen because they can heal you from the damage caused by the sun, as well as helping to smooth cellulite.

If this is a crock, would you rather get drunk on nonsense, or cake your skin in it and look like you've just been flanned?

The gin has been commissioned by Warner Leisure Hotels, who worked with Bompas & Parr on it.

Harry Parr, co-founder of Bompas & Parr, commented: "We've stayed true to the principles of a classic gin but given it a rejuvenating boost through these unusual botanicals that channel the fountain of youth."
